Is this water resistant or water proof? I need to know specifically. I am in water most of my day at work.

I've worn mine in the pool all day but not all day every day... I don't know if it might wear out quicker with the constant water contact. Have you tried asking on Fitbit's FB page? I asked them a question last year and they answered pretty quickly.

According to their site, it is water resistant and can be submerged up to 10 meters. I wear mine all the time, even in the shower, but I'd be hesitant to use it if I was in water most of the day. Maybe others have more experience with that...

I clean houses and was wondering about wearing it while I work?? I'm in water a lot.

It's water "resistant"; not "truly" water proof. That stated unless you have a real "swimmer" like a waterfowl retriever this is still a very good product.

The model I bought is water resistant. I proved on day after retrieving it out of San Francisco Bay. (btw, it floats too-)

It is not waterproof. I would call it water resistant. If you drop it in water you will probably ruin your phone. Nothing in this world is "break proof."

Water resistant, I'd say, yes. Waterproof, no. I sent mine through the washer by accident and it had some issues for a few days before completely drying out.

I could not find anything that clears states if it is water proof or water resistant. However, it is made from 100% polyester material, which many consider to be water resistant.

NOT water proof but water resistant. If you splash some water on it, you're phone will be ok. If you submerge it under water, the phone will be damaged just as if there was no case around it.

Yes it is water resistant! It says as long as it isn't submerged in water! My dog has wore his in the rain and I've had no problems so far! I hope that helps! :-)

When I first got it I tested the water resistance and yes it worked to keep water out but the problem is it is very fragile so if you drop it once...chances are it won't be water proof anymore

I think it is water resistant but I keep mine indoors so I am not positive. The fabric seems to be a synthetic like nylon with a tight weave structure so it should resist water to some degree.

There is a difference between water resistant and water tight. It works fine in the rain however, I wouldn't recomment submerging the device in water. Why would you want to?

I have dropped mine in water several times, once in a filled sink, and it was absolutely fine . . . BUT I did not leave it for very long time. I would say that it is very water resistant.

Hi - yes it is water resistant to some degree. I have had it for ~8 months and have had no problems. I've run in the rain with it a few times and I usually rinse it off under the faucet after every (or every other) use. So far, no problems and it's already outlasted the Timex Ironman I had previously. I have not 'submerged' it (i.e. swimming, etc.). Hope this helps!

It's sweat proof! I use mine while running with my dog and takes a dip in the pool everyday to cool off, water and sweat get all over it and nothing gets through.

Water resistant is not the same as water proof. Common sense says not to submerge any electronics in water even if using a water-proof case. I've gotten mine wet from rain and mud but not dropped it in a toilet, for instance.

I would say, very water resistant. Like any case, it's possible water could get in between the case and the phone.

I would say it's water resistant. I'm not sure if it's water proof. I live in Ohio and it's so cold that when I've used it I didn't sweat a lot or it was on my arm over a shirt or jacket.
